Spanish restaurant · River North

"Chicago is the fifth location of this casual Spanish restaurant that opened in D.C. back in 1993, so there’s a chance your in-laws ate here during the Clinton administration. And while at first the brightly lit, busy River North space might give you definite chain restaurant vibes, that concern will soon disappear thanks to the attentive service and great food. The menu includes tapas, paellas, sangrias, and a long list of Spanish wines. And the crowd - while a mixed bag of tourists - is clearly having some fun. It’s contagious, so even if you come here in a bad mood, you’ll be joining them soon." - adrian kane
